The years 2020 and 2021 have proved that humans can change and excel at that change within a short period of time. We have seen people adapting to working or studying from home and people taking care of their mental and physical well-being in these years. This proves that if we set our minds to something with determination, we achieve it without failure.
Now let’s talk about language learning. There is one popular belief associated with Language learning, that it cannot be learned just via books or apps. We aren’t here to prove that wrong, but to help everyone trying to learn a language online.
In this post, we will guide you through the process of preparing for a language examination remotely. We go through points to set your mind to it, how to practice, where to seek help, and how to get the certification in your first attempt.
Where to start?
Preparing for an exam can be overwhelming. One might not know where to start and how much time to allocate for preparation. Here are a few things to do before you start preparing until the day you take your examination and how Langoo can make a difference.
Setting realistic goals
It is important to understand that you cannot climb Mt. Everest in one day. Similarly, it is important to understand your pace while preparing for an exam and to give yourself ample time before booking your exam slot.
Understanding the exam model
Before you start preparing, it is important to know the kind of questions that appear in the exam. Also, knowing the total duration of each section, helps you save time to revise your answers if needed.
Signing up on Langoo
If you are a beginner with some exposure to a language and are unsure of which level to take, Langoo can help. You can log on to our website and take a free level test. Once you determine your level, you can start preparing for the exam accordingly.
Preparing
When you sign up on Langoo, we provide the learning material suitable for your level. This includes pocket notes for all 4 modules (Speaking, Listening, Reading & Writing). You can find notes for different vocabularies, grammar, and tips for writing essays, speaking, and listening.
Practicing
“Practice makes perfect”, and there is no denying that. With Langoo, you can take practice tests in a real exam-like setting. This will help you to manage time, and approach unexpected questions in your final exam. You can take as many practice tests as you want until you think you are ready for the D-Day.
Getting Feedback
Feedback improves learners’ confidence and makes them better at handling stress and tension during the exam. We have professional tutors who provide personalized feedback so that our users can understand what they are good at and what areas to improve on. This helps everyone learn better and achieve their desired score.
Interacting with the Community
Nobody wants to feel alone in a journey towards their goal. Being part of a community helps one to meet like-minded people trying to achieve the same goal. This will boost self-confidence and also relieve stress during preparation. With Langoo you can be a part of our Discord Community and interact with other students preparing for a similar exam and can also get in touch with the Langoo team for any kind of help or feedback.
